Tag Archive: Blog Themes

So, I’ve taken the cue from a few friends to change gears a bit. I have long wondered about those people who create new blogs to fit certain aspects of their writing style. Create a different painting on a different canvas as it were.

It’s true that most people have different narratives going on in their lives. Most people don’t necessarily deliberately fragment their thoughts and cultivate them as would a farmer segregating their crops. But painters do. Writers do as well. I suppose that writers are just painters, but using words.

Sometimes it’s enough to change the journal in which you’re writing to keep the juices flowing. Other times, one has to separate themselves and retreat for a new perspective. But, every change that facilitates a feeling of newness and possibility is one that also encourages creativity. So, for a little while, I’ll be seeing how this one fits me.

Anybody out there that actually reads this… What do you think?

I really like this theme. I’ve always lovedgreen colours and the darker colour scheme makes me feel a little more at home. I would really like my pic up top to stretch across from border to border, but I’m not adept enough for that. Suffice it to say, I really like this much better than the last one. What do you folks think?

Different things one can dream if given the chance

Charles Dean Burbank

I'm a recovering Christian, a recovering alcoholic, a broken and sinful survivor, a recovering brother and son, a recovering missionary, a recovering writer, and a recovering dreamer.

Yet, I've been blessed with being a teacher, a storyteller, a counselor, a theologian, a scientist, a labourer, a leader, a follower, a writer, and a dreamer.

Hopefully I won't be getting over any of these anytime soon. However, I do pray that I might be better at dealing with them and being them as I walk through this trek.

Someone once told me I was the dumbest genius they knew. Another told me that I was essentially the socket-wrench of Satan. Hopefully I'm neither, and yet somewhat both. (except for the Satan part)

If you enjoy the creative works that I will get around to inflicting upon this, please know that they are mine, and don't use them unless you ask. I would be so honoured, I think I would pass out from the mere question... The writing is mine, unless noted, and the photos may be mine or borrowed.

A Niche of Encouragement

One of my biggest desires is to serve God with whatever talents that I still may use. Writing seems to be one of those. But, I need direction, purpose, and development of intention. Skill or mere rote writing won't be it for me. I would cherish your prayers, suggestions, and guidance as I try to walk this new path. Cheers.
